Watch the fire or burn inside it
By Caroline Poggi and Jonathan Vinel (18', 2022)
In Corsica, a woman chooses to heal the Earth by burning it.
From Indielisboa: "Between the devastation of forest fires and the exaltation of a woman entranced by fire, the element is put forth as a form of rebellion and purification. Reflection and ecstasy burn in the same fire.
Their films since the first “Tant qu’il nous reste des fusils à pompe” always cared for restless and morally complex characters and in this film the main character, played by Caroline Poggi, faced with all the injustice around her decides to burn the world. In this time we live in, of endless bad news, doomscrolling and capitalist suffocation, will you watch the fire or burn inside it? (Rui Mendes)" The film was shot during the main residency in 2021, with other musician fellows Pan Daijing and Bendik Giske filmed playing music on the land.
It was premiered at Locarno Film Festival in 2022.
